Hey Sperry, can you tell me or PM me what items you need to record your own videos? I'd like to post some of my drift videos in GT3 and GT4 - which I'm sure some of you will find impressive

I use a PCMCIA video capture card (cost about $50) in my laptop (instead of just using a video camera pointed at the TV), and dump the monitor out from my TV to the card and record it directly on my computer. Then I downsample the movie to a smaller WMA file for uploading to the gallery.

For some reason, when I hook up my PS2 to the cheap ass PVR card in my desktop, it looks fucked up. The darker parts of the picture just black out completely. It kinda looks like tar oozing from the surface of the monitor...but I'm not exactly sober either.

BTW: anyone have some times yet for the current challenge? I just ran a 1'42.1, with lots of room for improvment as soon as I figure out which turns work better driving full grip, and which turns are faster with the back end out... you can't really "kinda" slide this car like the Miata... you have to either drive it straight up and make sure to brake a lot, or really carry some speed and get the back end out to turn.
I think the fastest laps will be by those that figure out which turns to drive which style. This is a very different challenge compared to the previous ones.

My fastest so far is 1'36.803. Yet still plent of room to improve. I can easily get ahead of my ghost just after the first 2 turns, but I can't pull it together afterwards.
I actually enjoy running laps here, the track is so wide and no sand traps to piss me off when I spin out. |

I'm at a 1:40.xx with about 10 laps. Now I'm just tooling around looking for a cliff to drive this car off of...

I've found that the best way to get the car to rotate is to lift mid-corner. Yes, braking should shift the weight even more dramatically than just lifting, but for some reason the GT4 physics treats braking differently than trailing throttle oversteer. Also, the e-brake will save you in a pinch and really get the backend to come around with just a tiny little tap. However, the game "disengages" the drive train when you pop the e-brake, so if you use it, there's a noticable delay once you try to get on the throttle before the car starts accelerating again.

1:37.499 after 10 more laps. Now, if you will excuse me, I need to wash the vomit off my steering wheel.

Snaps, that's a fast time. I'm at 1.40x myself. I can't get past it. I'm hating this car - simply because it won't let me change the gearing!!
I say we have a special drift challenge soon. Or else Imma open up my own challenge, lol. I want to see more drifting! Signed, Charlie |

Plus then we'll have to deal w/ voting for the best lap, since drifting is arbitrary. I say, just record some drift laps and share 'em w/ us... no need to try to make a complicated competition out of it.

Hehe, I probably will. I'm waiting for my video converter to come in the mail. I'm going to unseat Gran Dorifto from his drifting madness back in the GT3 days. I'll pwn him with my GT3 IS200 Turbo drift video on SS5! Signed, Charlie |
